    Next time you are in the Chicago area make public a threat to the President and/or his family. No need to waste time wallowing through an electronic phone menu or leaving voice mails. The Secret Service will get a hold of you.

    CIA Man Retracts Claim on Waterboarding

    Of course he did. But first he took the Hypocrite Oath which supersedes all other oaths. The Hypocrite Oath allows people like Al Gore to preach about global warming while jetting around the world with his entourage and living in a large energy wasting mansion. It allows Larry Craig to...

    It's about time you got that fixed! It was wrecked when I saw you early last October.

    CIA Man Retracts Claim on Waterboarding

    I believe he is referring to the Hypocrite Oath. All government employees are required to recite this oath.

    Volvo issues

    ccrider what you done, done? Sorry I couldn't resist that line. Your post got me thinking about electronically controlled engines, micro processors and other technologies found in modern trucks. I realize these things help us squeeze more miles out of a gallon of fuel but is there any real...

    Isolators

    I've been running a Hellroaring BIC-95159B since 2004. At that time the isolator, wire, circuit breaker and shipping/handling total was $192.15. I found cheaper isolators in the J.C. Whitney catalog, but went with Hellroaring believing it is a better product with the ability to talk to a...

    Inhanced Drivers License

    I live in Minnesota. I opted to have the microchip implanted in my head rather than embedded in my driver's license. It was a relatively painless procedure, leaving about a 1 inch scar on the upper right side of my forehead. Turtle says it makes me look like Randall P. McMurphy. "a little...

    Obviously freight rules aren't for everyone!

    I think this is common in many states where agriculture is king. Tack on some farm tags to the pickup truck and away you go. I hauled pulp logs in Minnesota when the gross weight limit was 73,280. Once the ground was frozen we got some kind of agriculture exemption from the state and could...

    Turtle, I'm parked 4 slots south of you. Looks like you spent your vacation time installing a new toy. When you wake up, stop by. But get dressed first.

    I turned on the dome light and waved at you. Looked like you were on the phone or sleeping. I yelled at you on the radio, somebody came back, but it didn't sound like you. Then I had to bail off the big road. Do you have a CB?

    Now here is an Idea we can all get behind!

    Come on Mark, you really don't believe any tax levying body would impose more taxes just to gain extra revenue do you? You must have skipped over this paragraph: The idea, as with the "indirect" taxes that WHO is about to consider, is that a relatively small consumer levy, once implemented...

    the new Idol phenom

    Don't get too caught up in this idol phenom, it will be short lived. Many states are following California's lead and banning idolizing to conserve fuel and reduce air pollution.

    They finally wised up

    There still seems to be confusion with the term "exclusive use". If a carrier is charging expedite rates and the tariffs specify exclusive use and that is what expediting is or was, then it is one customer and their freight only. From an article on FedEx Custom Critical: The journey of a...

    Block Heater

    When I delivered to grocery houses I would often have to break an "8" high pallet down to a "4" high pallet. I would slice the shrink wrap at the "4" high mark and get the forklift driver to place a pallet just below that level. I would then push the top "4" high block onto the empty pallet...
